McFadden is a lot like Russell in that he doesn’t seem to have the ‘vision’. I.e. he isn’t able to see a lot of things and how the play is developing. He just runs to a place and if it’s open then great and if not, then he falls over.

McFadden would have more yards with the Vikings than he has here though.

mcfadden = skinny legged runner that can’t break tackles.
No vision at all reading blockers or defenders in open field.
As for his breakaway speed? he been caught from behind too many times while breaking a a long run full speed. Unless we use him in gimmick/trick plays like Reggie bush. He’ll be worthless.
When he was drafted. I said we’d be lucky if he can be Eric metcalf.
